EAT Practice and Procedure : Striking-Out or Dismissal – Costs
It was open to the Employment Judge to strike out part of the Claimant’s claim, the remainder being later dismissed at a full hearing. The Employment Judge was entitled to find that the Claimant jumped the gun in bringing her claim that the Respondent had not promptly investigated her complaint, and to award costs relating to that part of the claim. Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council v Yerrakalva [2011] EWCA Civ 1255, Dean and Dean [2-11] EWCA Civ 1331 and Arrowsmith [2011] EWCA Civ 797 applied.
